Web form tabs (and who can access them) (WCMS 2)

Web form tabs

 

To access the Web form content type, a user must have the ‘form editor role’, ‘form results role’, or both roles added to their account.

  • Only a System Administrator can add the form editor role. This request must come from the website lead. Submit a request to have this role added on your WCMS website. Site managers can now remove or change the expiry of the form editor role once it has been assigned to a user.

  • Site Managers can add the form results role to a user’s account.


Web form tabs are located below the web form’s Heading 1:


Different roles have access to different Web form tabs:

Form Editor role: ability to create, edit and delete their own and all content (Webform tab).

Form Results Access role: ability to view the form results/submissions (Results tab) for all Webforms with normal access.

Note: Site Managers with the Form Editor role can assign granular form results access to further restrict access to form results.

Both roles: ability to create, edit and delete their own and all content and view form results/submissions (both Webform and Results tabs) with normal access.
